History

Yorktel was established in 1985, initially focusing on video conferencing solutions.[ buzzword ] Over the years, the company expanded to include cloud-based solutions[ buzzword ], and advanced video communication technologies.

Partnerships

In February 2021, Chip Ganassi Racing (CGR) announced a partnership renewal with Yorktel and Caregility. Both companies, owned by YTC Holdings, joined CGR for the 2020 NASCAR Playoffs as an associate partner on the No. 1 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE, driven by Kurt Busch.
